Former state school employee Pamela Doman, who retired in June 2016, saved $164,952 toward a pension over 32 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Doman would collect as much as $3.74 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes West Cook News.

The projection assumes Doman received $78,704 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 3 years of retirement, Doman will have already received $243,266 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
